Hi everyone. I am just wondering how things are going and if this group is active here. I looked thru the members list and see a lot fo folks that have not logged in for months.

I would like to know if anyone would like a challenge for this month to lose lets say three (3 pounds) ? I know that does not seem like a lot, but it is a good start.

I have been up and down for the last few months, up two, down three, and so on. I need to get with the program again and keep doing this right. I still want to lose another 30 lbs.

So....let me know and I will be here to encourage and help as much as I can. Always looking for serious new friends.

Blessing to you,

Rob

    I was ready to go for a walk when I got a phone call. After 30 minutes on the phone I was trying to talk myself out of walking. BUT I did it I took a 30minue walk and feel much better.

    It is active but sort of in spurts. There is a core of us that logs in daily. I would like to aim for 3 pounds. Sounds reasonable to me as I have also been up and down., also. Small goals seem doable. Thanks for the encouragement. And we can check in ...weekly??? Or whenever we wish to communicate?

    Yes this group is active, LOL....great to see you all are here and willing to go for it. Yes we can weigh in weekly, how about we weigh in one week from today? I know we can do this so lets encourage each other thru the hard times and make things happen.

    Please feel free to add me if you have room on your page for another friend. I work during the week, but will check in and encourage you as much as possible.


    Have a wonderful Memorial Day to you all.

    I am suggesting we begin tomorrow. And weigh in 1 week from Tuesday. I like to weigh first thing and I need a starting point. Also, will give a few others a chance to join us. This is a great idea.

    Hi

    I just read rsloop post and he would like to start a week from today to weigh in on Monday. Since he started this I think it would be good if we weighed then. I'm willing if everyone is. I am going to start today as I weighed in this am.

    I think we just copy and paste and post it here. I forgot to weigh in this a.m. I will do so tomorrow. Then post here. Awesome, I just noticed you've already lost a pound. WtG:)

    I've been on vacation and missed the beginning of the challenge, I will start with my weigh-in on Thursday, which is 2.4 lbs more than when I started my vacation (so hopefully the 3 shouldn't be a problem). I will weigh-in tomorrow morning (Wed has been my normal day) and get in sync with everyone else next week.
